A/N: For P100 prompt 572: Bitten. Also for my Primeval Bingo (Card 9) prompt: Love without Hope.


For once in his life, Lester was uncertain which path he should take. He didn't like the feeling... and bloody feelings were why he was in this conundrum in the first place. Bloody hell, he made life-and-death decisions every day, why was this one so difficult?

He smiled wryly, knowing why. Considering how his last relationship had ended, could he risk his heart being trampled once more? That and he didn't even know if Ryan was interested, let alone willing to take the chance. Not when he remembered that the captain's own marriage had also ended in an acrimonious divorce.

Glad you liked it, even if Lester went angsty on me.

Thanks for reading.

Difficult Choice. I hope Lester has the courage! Good drabble.

Lester doesn't like not knowing the right answer. So does he... and if I can sort out the sequel, we might find out.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Very nice! Go for it, Lester!

Glad you liked it. Lester would like to, whether he does is another question. If I can figure out the obviously named sequel, we might find out.

Thanks for reading.

Lester mutters it would be nice if he knew Ryan was interested.

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Aaww, Lester, just give you and Ryan a chance, it will be worth it. Nice use of the prompt! ^_^

Lester would love to, he's just once bitten, twice shy. I might have to revisit the idea with a suitable prompt

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.
